Halloween Week Recap!

We had so much fun last week celebrating Halloween, learning about the letter "H" and pumpkins!




Happy Halloween!!

Counting with pumpkin seeds.

We use several methods to help teach our students each letter. Sometimes we may use bingo dobbers to fill in a letter's shape, dry erase markers to connect dotted letters on our easel, letter crafts to tie the shape of a letter to an object starting with our current letter, etc. However, each week we also keep it a bit old school and practice writing the old fashioned way, with pencil and paper. :) As moms of kindergartners, we know just how many worksheets and writing activities are completed EVERYDAY. We hope by introducing paper and pencil, proper pencil holding techniques and letter recognition early that they will be comfortable as they progress into more challenging writing.


Important Information:
  • Parent Teacher Conferences will be held on November 25th. Each conference will last approximately 15 minutes. A sign-up sheet will be posted this week next to our classroom door.
